About This Property

A compelling Donner Lake opportunity, offered at a price that stands out among recent two-bedroom home sales in the area. Extensively remodeled and privately set back from the road, this move-in-ready 2-bedroom, 2-bath cabin combines Donner Lake views, thoughtful updates, and exceptional future potential. The light-filled interior features an updated kitchen and appliances, renovated bathrooms, new windows, flooring, and doors. A pellet stove anchors the comfortable living area, creating a warm and inviting mountain retreat. What truly distinguishes this property is the opportunity beyond the existing home. The flat, usable lot includes previously approved plans for a 536-square-foot two-car garage with a one-bedroom ADU above, complete with a kitchen, full bathroom, and living area. Approximately 428 square feet of additional coverage may also be available, providing further flexibility to explore an expanded design, subject to Town approval. Whether used as a full-time residence, a weekend retreat, or a rental for summer and winter leases, 13620 Donner Pass Road offers a rare combination of current livability and long-term investment opportunity. With recent two-bedroom Donner Lake sales supporting higher values, the property is attractively positioned at $749,000 and represents an exceptional opportunity for today’s buyer.
